Definitions
- the invention relates to an oxidative microbiological process for the preparation of aromatic aldehyde and / or carboxylic acid derivatives using recombinant microorganisms expressing xylene monooxygenase or alkane monooxygenase.
- Xylene monooxygenase e.g. encoded by the TOL plasmid pW O from Pseudomonas putida mt-2 is an enzyme system that plays a key role in the breakdown of toluene and xylenes.
- XMO belongs to the family of alkyl group hydroxylases and selectively hydroxylates a methyl group on the aromatic ring. This is the first step of a metabolic pathway (see FIG. 1 (A)) which leads to the formation of carboxylic acid derivatives, which are then converted into substrates for the Krebs cycle via the so-called meta-degradation pathway.
- XMO consists of two polypeptide subunits XylM and XylA, which are encoded by the genes xylM and xylA (xylMA GENBANK Accession No. M37480)
- XylA is a NADH acceptor reductase, i.e. an electron transport protein that transfers reduction equivalents of NADH to XylM, a hydroxylase located in the membrane.
- Alkane hydroxylase is the first enzyme in a medium chain alkane degradation pathway involving a set of enzymes encoded by two alk gene clusters on the catabolic OCT plasmid.
- the second enzyme in the pathway shown in Figure 1 (A) is benzyl alcohol dehydrogenase (BADH), a homodimeric member of a zinc-containing dehydrogenase family, the substrates of which are long-chain alcohols. This enzyme is encoded by the xylB gene.
- BADH benzyl alcohol dehydrogenase
- BZDH benzaldehyde dehydrogenase
- Escherichia coli which were genetically recombined in such a way that they express XMO, not only toluenes and xylenes, but also m- and p-ethyl-, methoxy-, nitro- and chlorine-substituted toluenes as well as m -Bromine-substituted toluene can oxidize to the corresponding benzyl alcohol derivatives (19, 20). Styrene is oxidized to styrene oxide (ee 95%).
- XMO also catalyzes the second step in the metabolic pathway shown in FIG.
- a simplified microbiological production method could surprisingly be provided.
- the invention is based in particular on the surprising finding that XMO or AMO are able to catalyze each individual step of the reaction path shown in FIG. 1 (A) or 1 (B).
- sieren ie the oxidation of alkyl-substituted aromatics to the carboxylic acid derivative via the corresponding alcohol derivative and the corresponding aldehyde derivative as intermediates.
- a first subject of the invention thus relates to a process for the preparation of aromatic aldehydes and / or carboxylic acids of the general formula I.
- Ar represents an optionally mono- or polysubstituted mononuclear aromatic ring
- R 1 represents an oxygen-containing group -CHO or -COOH
- n stands for an integer value from 0 to 15, such as O to 12, 1 to 6 or 6 to 12,
- R 3 represents H or OH; or, if R 1 is -COOH, R 2 is also
- R 4 can be in which n is as defined above and R 4 is -CHO;
- XMO xylene monoxygenase
- AMO alkane monooxygenase
- the reaction according to the invention can therefore be carried out in one or more stages using the same enzyme.
- the alkylated aromatic, the corresponding alcohol or the corresponding aldehyde can be used as the substrate.
- the degree of oxidation of the substrate used can be controlled in a simple manner, as described below.
- the aromatic ring system Ar in the compounds of the formulas I and II prepared according to the invention or used as a substrate can be mono- or polysubstituted.
- the position of the ring substituent (s) can be selected as desired. However, the meta and / or para position to the side chain to be oxidized is preferred.
- substrates of the formula II which can be oxidized by XMO by the process according to the invention are toluene, xylenes, styrene, m- and / or p-methyl, ethyl-, methoxy-, nitro- and chlorine-substituted toluenes and m-bromine substituted toluene and pseudocumene (ie trimethylbenzenes); as well as the corresponding alcohols or aldehydes of these compounds.
- substrates of the formula II which can be oxidized by AMO by the process according to the invention are toluene, ethylbenzene, n- and i-propylbenzene, n-butylbenzene, and the m- and / or p-methyl, ethyl, methoxy, nitro- and chlorine-substituted analogs of these compounds; and the corresponding alcohols and aldehydes of these compounds.
- XMO encoded by the genes xylA and xylB according to xylMA GENBANK Accession No. M37480 and corresponding isoenzymes.
- XMO preferably originates from bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas, in particular of the species Pseudomonas putida, preferably strain mt-2 (ATCC 33015).
- AMO encoded by the genes alkB, alkG and alkT according to GENBANK Accession No. AJ245436 and corresponding isoenzymes (eg isoenzymes to alkB).
- AMO preferably originates from bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas, in particular of the species Pseudomonas oleovorans, preferably strain GPol (ATCC 29347).
- “functional equivalents” are understood to mean, in particular, enzyme mutants which, in at least the sequence position, have a different amino acid than the original one, but nevertheless catalyze one of the oxidation reactions mentioned above. “Functional equivalents” thus include those substituted by one or more amino acid additions or substituents , Deletions and / or inversions available mutants, the changes mentioned being able to occur in any sequence position as long as they lead to a mutant with the catalytic activity according to the invention. Functional equivalence is particularly given when the reactivity patterns between mutant and unchanged enzyme match qualitatively, i.e. for example, the same substrates can be implemented at different speeds.
- “Functional equivalents” naturally also include monooxygenases derived from other organisms, e.g. from bacteria other than those specifically mentioned here, as well as naturally occurring variants or isozymes. For example, regions of homologous sequence regions can be determined by sequence comparison and equivalent enzymes can be determined based on the specific requirements of the invention.
- nucleic acid sequences other than those specifically mentioned (single and double-stranded DNA and RNA sequences) which code for one of the above monooxygenases and their functional equivalents. Further nucleic acid sequences which can be used according to the invention thus differ from the specifically used sequences by addition, substitution, insertion or deletion of individual or more nucleotides, but continue to code for a monooxygenase with the desired property profile.
- the invention also includes the use of nucleic acid sequences which comprise so-called silent mutations or which have been changed in accordance with the codon usage of a specific source or host organism, in comparison to a specifically named sequence, as well as naturally occurring variants thereof, for example splice variants.
- the subject matter is likewise obtainable by conservative nucleotide substitutions (ie the amino acid in question is replaced by an amino acid of the same charge, size, polarity and / or solubility).
- the invention also relates to expression constructs containing, under the genetic control of regulatory nucleic acid sequences, a nucleic acid sequence coding for a monooxygenase enzyme which can be used according to the invention; and vectors comprising at least one of these expression constructs.
- Such constructs according to the invention preferably comprise a promoter 5 'upstream of the respective coding sequence and a terminator sequence 3' downstream and, if appropriate, further customary regulatory elements, in each case operatively linked to the coding sequence.
- An “operative linkage” is understood to mean the sequential arrangement of promoter, coding sequence, terminator and, if appropriate, further regulatory elements in such a way that each of the regulatory elements can fulfill its function as intended when expressing the coding sequence. Examples of sequences which can be linked operatively are targeting sequences and translation enhancers, enhancers, polyadenylation signals and the like. Other regulatory elements include selectable markers, amplification signals, origins of replication and the like.
- the natural regulatory sequence can still be present before the actual structural gene. This natural regulation can, if necessary, be switched off by genetic modification and the expression of the genes increased or decreased.
- the gene construct can, however, also have a simpler structure, that is to say no additional regulation signals are inserted in front of the structural gene and the natural promoter with its regulation is not removed. Instead, the natural regulatory sequence is mutated so that regulation no longer takes place and gene expression is increased or decreased.
- the nucleic acid sequences can be contained in one or more copies in the gene construct.
- Examples of useful promoters are: cos, tac, trp, tet, trp-tet, lpp, lac, lpp-lac, laclq, T7, T5, T3, gal, tre , ara, SP6, 1-PR or in the 1-PL promoter, which are more advantageous find wise use in gram-negative bacteria; as well as the gram-positive promoters amy and SP02, the yeast promoters ADC1, MFa, AC, P-60, CYC1, GAPDH or the plant promoters CaMV / 35S, SSU, OCS, lib4, usp, STLS1, B33, not or the ubiquitin or phaseolin promoter.
- inducible promoters such as, for example, light- or temperature-inducible promoters, such as the P r P ⁇ promoter, is particularly preferred
- the regulatory sequences mentioned are intended to enable the targeted expression of the nucleic acid sequences and the protein expression. Depending on the host organism, this can mean, for example, that the gene is only expressed or overexpressed after induction, or that it is immediately expressed and / or overexpressed.
- the regulatory sequences or factors can preferably have a positive influence on the expression and thereby increase or decrease it.
- the regulatory elements can advantageously be strengthened at the transcription level by using strong transcription signals such as promoters and / or "enhancers".
- an increase in translation is also possible, for example, by improving the stability of the mRNA.
- An expression cassette according to the invention is produced by fusing a suitable promoter with a suitable monooxygenase nucleotide sequence and a terminator or polyadenylation signal. Common recombination and cloning techniques are used for this, as described, for example, in T. Maniatis et al (24) and in T.J. Silhavy et al. (32) and in Ausübel, F.M. et al. (33) are described.
- the recombinant nucleic acid construct or gene construct is advantageously inserted into a host-specific vector which enables optimal expression of the genes in the host.
- Vectors are well known to those skilled in the art and can be found, for example, in "Cloning Vectors" (Pouwels P.H. et al. (34)).
- vectors are also understood to mean all other vectors known to the person skilled in the art, such as phages, viruses such as SV40, CMV, baculovirus and adenovirus, transposons, IS elements, phasmids, cosmids, and linear or circular DNA. These vectors can be replicated autonomously in the host organism or replicated chromosomally.
- recombinant microorganisms can be produced which, for example, have been transformed with at least one vector according to the invention and can be used in the method according to the invention.
